Oxford Winter Night Shelter (UK, 1175750) Browse events

What we'd like to achieve: Our vision is to mitigate the harm that sleeping rough does to people's health and safety, especially during the coldest months of the year. We aim to show the love of God to each of our guests through the way we welcome and care for them, although we do not push religion at our guests. What matters to us and why we do it: In the belief that God wants us all to live fulfilled lives, we put a high priority on respecting our guests. We work within a Christian ethos, and while not excluding guests or volunteers of other faiths or none, have the expectation that they will respect and abide by our values. We acknowledge that we share with all other major faiths, and people of no faith, a desire to help some of the most vulnerable in our society.

Home-Start Reading (UK, 1110638) Browse events

Home-Start Reading volunteers have been supporting local families going through hard times for over 30 years. Volunteers visit families in the home every week to provide emotional support and practical help. They help parents build their ability to cope with the difficulties they face so that they can provide happier, healthier and safer homes for their children. For the last 25 years, we have also run weekly family support groups in Whitley and Tilehurst. In October we were named Reading Charity of the Year at the Reading Pride Awards. Donations would go towards meeting the ever increasing demands for our service by Reading families, by expanding staff hours so we can recruit, train and supervise more volunteers. Our monitoring data for 2013-14 shows that families have reported that the vast majority of their identified needs had been fully or partly met through Home-Start’s involvement. By supporting Home-Start Reading, you will be making a real difference to some of Reading’s most vulnerable families. It costs just £29 a week to support a family in the home through Home-Start. “She’s been really great: someone to share the three little ones with and to help me; someone to help me get out; someone to confide in and to offer support; someone to listen to you.” A supported Mum about her Volunteer. “Research into Home-Start and other home visiting schemes confirms that they produce benefits for parents and children. Home-Start raises self-confidence, improves social networks, reduces difficult behaviour on the part of the child and improves physical and mental health.” Government report "Every Child Matters".

Educating The Children (UK, 1139741) Browse events

ETC stands for Educating The Children, which is exactly what we are doing in the Masai Mara, in Kenya and also in the UK (through our global learning programme). There are essentially two strands to ETC: (1) UK VOLUNTEER TEACHERS: go to teach in the Mara where classroom sizes are roughly 1 teacher to 100 pupils! They also exchange best practises with Kenyan teachers, and educate UK pupils on their return through real life examples of global learning. We provide them with the training to do that. (2) FARIJIKA SECONDARY SCHOOL: we have recently started building the first girls secondary school in the Masai Mara which will also act as a safe haven from female genital mutilation and forced childhood marriages. International research shows that investing in girls delivers a higher return than any other investment made in a community's development.

Christ Church Boat Club (UK, X6508) Browse events

Christ Church Boat Club is the college boat club of Christ Church, Oxford, a large and prestigious College & constituent part of Oxford University. It exists, as it has for nearly two centuries, to provide rowing, competition facilities & fellowship for undergraduates & graduates studying up at the 'House'. Founded in 1817 (the year of its first Headship) Christ Church Boat Club has a proud and unmatched history among the ranks of the Oxford Colleges. Each year its crews compete at varying levels in the Oxford bumping races & in other competitions, both in Oxford & the wider rowing world. Some of the members of the Club are already experienced oarsmen & women before they arrive: others learn their rowing up at the House (a nickname based on the Latin 'Aedes Christi', literally the 'House of Christ'). Novice programmes begin within a few days of arrival in Oxford, culminating seven weeks later in the Christ Church Regatta, a large annual event involving race-offs between the novice crews of all the Oxford colleges. The following term brings Torpids - an annual bumping race in eights - &, finally, in the summer term a second set of bumping races in Eights Week, often attended by thousands of spectators. A few of the most proficient will be selected to row for the university crews, either in OUBC or OUWBC, or in the men's & women's lightweight or development squads. In addition there is the Christ Church Boat Club Society, an association of old members of the House who come together to provide support in the form of coaching, funding & attendance at races, proving that membership of the club is indeed for life.
